| FUNCTION OF COMPONENTS |
The parking assist ECU controls the system by using information from the following components.
| Item | Function |
| Parking Assist ECU | Turns the side television camera assembly on or off based on parameters such as the display settings, the front and side monitor main switch signal, the shift signal and the vehicle speed signal. Transmits the wide view front and side monitor, side monitor, or wide view front monitor signals to the multi-media module receiver assembly based on parameters such as the display settings, the front and side monitor main switch signal, the shift signal and the vehicle speed signal. Depending on the display settings, renders the output display for the wide view front and side monitor, the side monitor, or the wide view front monitor, and outputs them to the screen of the multi-display assembly. With the video feed from the side television camera assembly showing the vehicle's left-side surroundings as a base, uses vehicle information such as the signal from the steering angle sensor to calculate and overlay a composite image and output this to the screen of the multi-display. Renders each configuration page in the diagnosis window and outputs the screen to the multi-display assembly. When the outer mirror retraction signal is received, terminates the side camera collimation/alignment. Stores each configuration setting from the diagnosis window. |
| Multi-media Module Receiver Assembly | Communicates with the parking assist ECU through AVC-LAN communication. |
| Multi-display Assembly | This touch panel display is used to view and interact with the wide view front and side monitor, side view monitor, wide view front monitor, and diagnosis screens. |
| Side television camera assembly | Generates a video feed showing the passenger side of the vehicle and transmits the video to the parking assist ECU. |
| Front and Side Monitor Main Switch Assembly | Operating the switch sends a signal to the parking assist ECU. |
| Outer Mirror Switch Assembly | Transmits outer mirror retraction signal to parking assist ECU. |
| Steering Sensor | Transmits steering angle signal and sensor status signal to multi-display via CAN communication. |
| Steering Control ECU* | Sends the VGRS relative angle and vehicle condition to the parking assist ECU through CAN communication. |
| Master Cylinder Solenoid (Skid Control ECU Assembly) | Sends the inner brake information and ABS ACT information to the parking assist ECU through CAN communication. |
| Four Wheel Drive Control ECU | Sends the L4 condition signal to the parking assist ECU through CAN communication. |
